Reading property files from a script
Even I had a similar requirement.
Have got a way to read the properties with below command

. cfg/props.properties

but am getting the below error for every blank line

: command not found: line 8:
: command not found: line 10:
: command not found: line 12:

Can any one help me removing the blank spaces before reading the properties file? Or is there any better way to read property files?

Thanks in advance,
Surendra
